Synthesis and Properties of UV-Curable Soybean Oil Based Polyfunctional Acrylate

Abstract:

With the reduction of fossil resources, renewable raw molecules have drawn a great deal of attention because of their ability to substitute for petrochemical-based materials. In this context, we synthesis a soybean oil based polyfunctional acrylate (PFA) by thiol-ene photo-click reaction and DCC catalyzed esterification in mild environment for UV-curable materials. Chemical structure was confirmed by ¹H NMR and FTIR. Thermal and mechanical properties were respectively revealed by DSC, TG and TMA. All the cured films possessed excellent thermal stability and UV-curing performance, implying that they can be used for high-performance UV inks and coatings of packing industry, especially for ink-jet inks.
